Sorry, but I'm new to LinuxMCE and to Linux as well and I have to work with it for a while to get into it. I will fix it somehow. I made some steps forward but I still have the problem with installing packages as I posted here: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=3319.0If you could help me with that would be great.

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/conf.d --with-x --with-driver=mceusb2I read that it has something to do with the kernel headers. As described here http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MCE_Remote#Installation_guides uname -a gives me back 2.6.20-16-generic. So I tried to update but it says that it is already the latest version. Any ideas?

AK83I don't really know what could be wrong with your configuration. I see you used the latest lirc source code. One of the threads I read while trying to resolve the MCE remote problem warned about installing the latest lirc beta version, as it could contain code that was not supported under the current LMCE version. For this reason, I downloaded the same lirc version 0.8.2 (official release) source code used in LMCE 704 and then overlaid the lirc_mceusb2 module source code version 1.37. Thus, only updating the small part of lirc required to support the MCE remote with the SMK receiver. Follow the instructions I wrote in my thread.

Again, I am not sure if this is your problem, but this is what worked for me. Support for the MCE remote and SMK receiver is supposedly included in LMCE 710, as mentioned by several other persons in this forum. Date for the 710 release is delayed though.

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/conf.d --with-x --with-driver=mceusb2I read that it has something to do with the kernel headers. As described here http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MCE_Remote#Installation_guides uname -a gives me back 2.6.20-16-generic. So I tried to update but it says that it is already the latest version. Any ideas?

Again, thanks a lot for your help!

Have you done "apt-get install linux-headers"?If that doesn't work try "apt-get install kernel-headers" - Can't remember which one it was

configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity checkSee `config.log' for more details.I read that I need the GCC (build essential) package to compile. But I can't install that package using the terminal as I am told that it cannot be found. I think that is because of the lmce sources.list. Could I download some kind of .deb-file for this and run it after downloading?

alex@dcerouter:~$ dpkg -l make...||/ Name Version Beschreibung+++-==========================-==========================-====================================================================ii make 3.81-3build1 The GNU version of the "make" utility.

Ok, sorry. I just read this:"gcc is first built without the C++ compiler"

What I need is "gcc-c++", but I can't install any packages. The Terminal always tells me that the package cannot be found, doesn't matter which package I choose. Perhaps something went wrong during installation. That's why I asked for a different way to get packages I need.

I don't know, but probably there's something wrong with my sources.list. Would I get an error if "apt-get update" failed? Could someone post his sources.list so I can check if there's anything missing? Would be nice!
